YSU Penguin Athletics / Re: MVFC Playoff Outlook

« on: November 10, 2014, 08:39:45 PM »

At least 4 teams from the MVFC are DEFINITELY going to playoffs this year...

Only thing is that the playoff selection committee does not want there to be an all-MVFC semifinal and eventual championship, because they know that will happen because every week in the MVFC is a playoff game, something no other conference can challenge. At the end of the day, the best teams need to make the playoffs no matter what conference they are from. If they could, I'm sure they would take more teams from the MVFC but they do not want what I just said to happen.

On another note, watch for the MVFC to expand with at least 2 more teams in the next couple of years. They will actually be the SEC of FCS football with an East and a West division.

I just wish more people throughout the Valley (not the people on this site) would care about coming to the games and giving a damn about our team, because what a lot of people dont realize is that in college football unlike the nfl have completely different teams every year and this team that we get to watch this year is definitely something special.

mark my words.... ysu will be a playoff team for the next 3 years (this year included)

All it takes for "fans" to be more of a factor at home games according to y'all is for the team to be winning. Do you fail to realize that every year under Wolfs tenure the team has increased its win total from years past (3,6,7,8). And the past 3 years the team has been 1 game away from the playoffs. But in those crucial playoff games where the team needed a 'home field crowd' they got nothing. It is in fact a running joke around the community to guess the attendance for the game (last week the pre-game prediction was 5,000) which is such a shame due to the talent level of the team this year as well as the overall record (should be undefeated).

How can you put this on the players, when the players bring 500+ of the "butts in the seats" due to friends and family coming to support them. If the players could pay to have a sellout every home game and have a home atmosphere like they experience on the road, I would be willing to bet any amount of money that they would do that in a heart beat.

The best home atmosphere those boys have had all year was at the end of the Western game when the true fans stayed after the bandwagoners left and the game was given up to a Hail Mary at the end. The players seemed out of sync because they were not used to playing in a home atmosphere like that on offense. Watch the post game interviews from that game, there were a lot of communication errors because the defense was not used to playing in a loud environment such as that.

Every week all everybody needs to do is bring 1 or 2 people, not get black out drunk at the tailgate, make it to the game and all these problems will solved in no time. Well that and our boys making playoffs this year.

YSU Penguin Athletics / Re: Guins vs. Coyotes

First Post ever.
Penguins come out guns blazing and show the Coyotes the same type of butt whooping they were shown last week vs NDSU. According to the weather, no snow is on the forecast for game time. That should bode well for the Guins. South Dakota is another one of those dome teams, so playing in cold weather might pose a challenge for them.

Final Score:
Penguins: 42
Coyotes: 24
